Flexibility

Students who exhibit behavior that is challenging to adults often struggle with cognitive flexibility.  When the brain lacks access to its ability to gain and send out certain information, it may result in behavior that can look very rigid.  When rigid thought patterns, behavior patterns, and a feeling of a need for control interfere with learning and teaching, working on flexibility skills is a strategy we can use to impact student outcomes.  This workshop will explore how the brain works and the factors that impact a student’s ability to access and use flexibility.
